But is he really Lucy Beale's murderer?

After discovering that jittery alcoholic sous-chef Jake Stone (Jamie Lomas) is the mystery person who emailed her on the night that Lucy Beale died, Lauren Branning is to place herself in further danger.

In scenes to be shown tonight (8.00pm, BBC1), Lauren will be seen making a frantic search for information on Jake's whereabouts on Good Friday. But, once she gets home, Lauren is quickly terrified by the sight of Jake, who's managed to get into the house.

As Lauren tries to flee, Jake grabs her - but will she manage to get away? And is Jake really responsible for committing the crime of killing Lucy in the first place?
